Time (5:37)

Cover of Live In Gdańsk

From Live In Gdańsk and 7 other releases

In January 2007, Readers from The Guitar World Magazine voted David Gilmours guitar solo on “Time” the 21st Greatest Guitar Solo of all time.
Live versions with Richard Wright appear on the David Gilmour solo Remember That Night DVD and Live in Gdańsk CD. The Live in Gdańsk version segues into the “Breathe (Reprise)” section as a separate track under the title “Breathe (In The Air) (reprise)” rather than just “Breathe (Reprise)

“Time” is the fourth track[1] from British progressive rock band Pink Floyd’s 1973 album, The Dark Side of the Moon, and the only song on the album credited to all four members of the band. It is noted for its long introductory passage of clocks chiming and alarms ringing, recorded as a quadrophonic test by Alan Parsons, not specifically for the album.

The song is a memento mori describing the phenomenon in which time seems to pass more quickly as one ages, often leading to despair in old age over missed opportunities of the past.

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.
